Interesting take. On the topic of work ethic: If we measure it via labor participation rate then EU and US are similar with some countries being lower and others being higher than the US in that regard. Switzerland as an example is quite a bit higher in that metric. But it is known for a rather conservative economic approach overall. Favoring stability, predictability and quality over velocity and big payoffs. Perhaps it's a good thing that there are different models and cultures.
